                     =      CDE 1.1b      =

                     ======================

 CDE v1.1b is a small (shell/cli) program to archive your CD`S (compact
 disks) !
 There`s a config file already installed ! It`s called "TCED.CNFG" !
 This file contains your selfdefined "CD list file" and the bufferfilename!
 The current setting is "S:CD_LISTE" , you can change this by using 
 the "C" command of CDE ! The current setting for the bufferfile is
 "Listen/CD_Liste" (can be changed by any text editor !<--sorry for that!).
 You need at least OS2.0 or higher to run this small proggi (sorry,but
 I`ve had some problems with OS 1.3 machines !)!
 Lets go on with the functions :

    Since version 1.1 every function can be controlled by the
    shell menu ! Single function calls ("CDE -S" for example) are
    not longer working !
 
   "-S" ............... To search ! If you use this functions you`ll be
                        asked to search for "T"itle or "B"and !
                        If you`re searching a title ("RENEWAL" for example)
                        you can type "renew" or "rene" and so on (wildcards
                        allowed) ! If somethings found you`ll be shown
                        the title ,CD number,and the band ! Than you`ll
                        be asked if CDE should continue search !
                        IF you`ve answered with "y" CDE will search for
                        the same title again (perhaps there`s the same
                        but from another band!).
                        IF you use "B" ("KREATOR" for example) you can
                        type "krea" or "kreat" and so on ! Than all
                        CD`s of this band will be shown !

   "-V" ............... To view the whole cd list file ! If you use this
                        function , you can use the following commands while
                        showing the file :
                          "Q"  - to quit
                          "CR" - to see the next entry
                          "B"  - to go backwards (one number)
                          "J"  - to jump to a specific number !

   "-E" ................ To enter a new entry to file !
                         Some changes made ! There`re 2 different ways
                         of adding a new entry to listfile now !
                         way a) -[the normal one]-
                         If you use this function , you`ll be asked
                          a) for the name of the band
                          b) for the cd title
                           Now you`ll be asked if everthing is allright.
                           If not you can select :
                          a) the bandname (enter new one)
                          b) the cd title (enter new one)
                           After that you`ll be asked again !
                           If everything went allright , the CD will be
                           added to the listfile !
                         way b) -[the easier one]-
                         You can read a band from a selfdefined bufferfile!
                         If you call the "-E" function a requester opens!
                         Now you can select between "Manual" or "Buffer"
                         mode !
                         After selecting the "Buffer" mode , the whole
                         bufferfile will be shown (one after another)
                         now you`ll be asked to "Take [Y/N]:" ! If you
                         "say" "yes" the band will be taken from the
                         bufferfile ! Now the last thing you`ve to do
                         is to enter the name of the CD (CD title)!                    
                         If you wan`t to quit editing than type "-Q"!
                         If you just want to change the form of editing
                         (from manual to buffermode for example) then use
                         "-S" !
                         

   "-SO" ............... This will sort your list alphabetical !

   "-D" ................ To delete ! IF you use this function , you`ll
                         be asked to delete "F"ree , "T"itle , "A"ll or
                         "Q"uit !
                         If you use the "F" function :
                          Every entry will be shown , than you can use
                          the following commands :
                           "Y" to delete
                           "CR" to jump to the next entry
                           "J"  to jump to a specific beginning letter
                           ("J" . . . "d" jumps to all bands beginning
                            with "D"!)
                           "Q" to quit deleting !

                           IF you use the "T" function :
                            You`ll be asked for the title to delete !
                             CDE will search for this title , if it is
                             found you`ll be asked to delete or not !
 
                            If you use the "A" function :
                             Your whole list file will be deleted !

   "-I" ................ Will show you some informations about :
                          a) The number of CD`S in file
                          b) the filelength (in bytes)
                          c) the filelength (in KB)
                          d) the used blocks !
                          e) the number of cd`s in bufferfile
                          f) the length of the bufferfile (in bytes)
                          g) the used blocks (of the bufferfile)

   "-C" ................ To change your current "cd list file" !
                          If you use this function , you`ll be asked
                          for the name of the new cd list file !
                          After that your configfile will be changed
                          to the new cd list file !

   "-DB" ............... To delete the selfdefined bufferfile (do you 
                         remeber ? Look above "-E" !).
                         There are 3 ways of deleting the bufferfile!
                          a) delete whole bufferfile
                          b) delete specific ones (bands)

                         You can select (while showing) the following
